Courage

The courage we desire and prize is not the courage to die decently, but to live manfully.
- Carlyle, Thomas
Courage Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Courage

1.
Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees all others.
Churchill, Winston

2.
With your help I can advance against a troop; with my God I can scale a wall. [Psalms 18:29]
Bible

3.
The finest gift you can give anyone is encouragement. Yet, almost no one gets the encouragement they need to grow to their full potential. If everyone received the encouragement they need to grow, the genius in most everyone would blossom and the world would produce abundance beyond the wildest dreams. We would have more than one Einstein, Edison, Schweitzer, Mother Theresa, Dr. Salk and other great minds in a century.
Madwed, Sidney

4.
I would rather be a coward than brave because people hurt you when you are brave.
E. M. Forster

5.
It takes a certain courage and a certain greatness to be truly base.
Anouilh, Jean

6.
Father, may these people have the vision to see, the faith to accept the truth, the courage to stand by that which they know is right.

7.
Stand up to crises. Don't let them throw you! Fight to stay calm... even surmount the crisis completely and turn it into an opportunity. Refuse to renounce your self-image. No matter what happens, you must keep your good opinion of yourself. No matter what happens, you must hold your past successes in your imagination, ready for showing in the motion picture screen of your mind. No matter what happens, no matter what you lose, no matter what failures you must endure, you must keep faith in yourself. Then you can stand up to crises, with calm and courage, refusing to buckle; then you will not fall through the floor. You will be able to support yourself.
Maltz, Maxwell

8.
The most glorious moments in your life are not the so-called days of success, but rather those days when out of dejection and despair you feel rise in you a challenge to life, and the promise of future accomplishments.
Flaubert, Gustave

9.
Fortune and love favor the brave.
Ovid

10.
The acorn becomes an oak by means of automatic growth; no commitment is necessary. The kitten similarly becomes a cat on the basis of instinct. Nature and being are identical in creatures like them. But a man or woman becomes fully human only by his or her choices and his or her commitment to them. People attain worth and dignity by the multitude of decisions they make from day by day. These decisions require courage.
May, Rollo

11.
It is easy to fly into a passion... anybody can do that, but to be angry with the right person to the right extent and at the right time and in the right way that is not easy.
Aristotle

12.
True courage is not the brutal force of vulgar heroes. Rather the firm resolve of virtue and reason.
Whitehead, Alfred North

13.
Courage is a quality so necessary for maintaining virtue, that it is always respected, even when it is associated with vice.
Johnson, Samuel

14.
The test of tolerance comes when we are in a majority; the test of courage comes when we are in a minority.
Stockman, Ralph W.

15.
Courage is acting in spite of fear.
Hunter, Howard W.

16.
As a rock on the seashore he standeth firm, and the dashing of the waves disturbeth him not. He raiseth his head like a tower on a hill, and the arrows of fortune drop at his feet. In the instant of danger, the courage of his heart here, and scorn to fly.
Akhenaton

17.
As for courage and will -- we cannot measure how much of each lies within us, we can only trust there will be sufficient to carry through trials which may lie ahead.
Norton, Andre

18.
Bravery and stupidity go hand in hand.
Summers, David

19.
No one can be brave who considers pain to be the greatest evil in life, or can they be temperate who considers pleasure to be the highest good.
Cicero, Marcus T.

20.
You've got to jump off cliffs and build your wings on the way down.
Bradbury, Ray

21.
I think of those who were truly great. The names of those who in their lives fought for life, Who wore at their hearts the fire's center.
Spender, Stephen

22.
Live as brave men; and if fortune is adverse, front its blows with brave hearts.
Cicero

23.
Fortune can take away riches, but not courage.
Seneca

24.
We are made strong by the difficulties we face not by those we evade.

25.
Courage is spelled I-N-T-E-G-R-I-T-Y.
Schuller, Robert H.

26.
The worst thing of all is standing by when folks are doing something wrong.
Kirby Larson

27.
And what he greatly thought, he nobly dared.
Homer

28.
I've been through it all, baby. I'm Mother Courage.
Taylor, Elizabeth

29.
The spirited horse, which will try to win the race of its own accord, will run even faster if encouraged.
Ovid

30.
Be larger than your task.
Marden, Orison Swett

31.
All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
Disney, Walt

32.
Courage is a special kind of knowledge: the knowledge of how to fear what ought to be feared and how not to fear what ought no to be feared.
Ben-Gurion, David

33.
Like a boxer in a title fight, you have to walk in that ring alone.
Joel, Billy

34.
Courage is almost a contradiction in terms. It means a strong desire to live taking the form of a readiness to die.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

35.
More firm and sure the hand of courage strikes, when it obeys the watchful eye of caution.
Thomson, James

36.
A timid person is frightened before a danger, a coward during the time, and a courageous person afterwards.
Richter, Jean Paul

37.
It takes courage to attempt the impossible. What would we think of Moses today if when it was time to part the red sea, he had said Why don't you guys go build a bridge?

38.
A great deal of talent is lost in the world for want of courage.
Smith, Sydney

39.
Most of the high spots in our lives come about through encouragement. I don't care how great, how famous, how successful a man may be, he hungers for applause.

40.
Woman and men of retiring timidity are cowardly only in dangers which affect themselves, but the first to rescue when others are in danger.
Richter, Jean Paul

41.
Courage enlarges, cowardice diminishes resources. In desperate straits the fears of the timid aggravate the dangers that imperil the brave.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

42.
Much of what we call evil is due entirely to the way men take the phenomenon. It can so often be converted into a bracing and tonic good by a simple change of the sufferer's inner attitude from one of fear to one of fight; its string can so often depart and turn into a relish when, after vainly seeking to shun it, we agree to face about and bear it...
James, William

43.
At the bottom of not a little of the bravery that appears in the world, there lurks a miserable cowardice. Men will face powder and steel because they have not the courage to face public opinion.
Chapin, Edwin Hubbel

44.
I decided once and for all that I was going to make it or die.
Johnson, John

45.
It is in great dangers that we see great courage.
Regnard, Jean Francois

46.
If men knew all that women think, they would be twenty times more daring.
Karr, Alphonse

47.
Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear.
Mark Twain

48.
Courage charms us, because it indicates that a man loves an idea better than all things in the world, that he is thinking neither of his bed, nor his dinner, nor his money, but will venture all to put in act the invisible thought of his mind.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

49.
Courage is being scared to death - but saddling up anyway.
John Wayne

50.
Screw up your courage, you screwed up everything else.
Smith, Donald
